Abstract. In this work, a Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is proposed for a Metabolic Engineering task: the optimization of the set of gene deletions to apply to a microbial str...
—In metabolic engineering it is difficult to identify which set of genetic manipulations will result in a microbial strain that achieves a desired production goal, due to the co...
—A novel Fast Bacterial Swarming Algorithm (FBSA) for high-dimensional function optimization is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm combines the foraging mechanism of...
Background: We consider the discovery of recombinant segments jointly with their origins within multilocus DNA sequences from bacteria representing heterogeneous populations of fa...
